Abstract:
This report is a collection of concise descriptions of the pavement management practices of eight states. Information for the report came from a 1982 Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) review of state pavement management activities. Pavement management is a broad concept that encompasses a large number of state highway agency functions, including data collection, planning, research, design, construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation. In short, pavement management activities impact all functions necessary to design, construct, maintain, and improve a state's network of roadways. The reports contained herein deal with one element of pavement management - the rehabilitation programming process. This activity includes those data collection, planning and programming practices which lead to an objective, optimized mating of rehabilitation needs and available funding. Rehabilitation priority programming also serves as an effective management tool by detailing both those projects which could be implemented at varying funding levels, and, conversely, the costs associated with varying levels of service. This flexibility is invaluable when dealing with a state legislature or the general public, and the objectivity of the process lends credence to the entire rehabilitation program and its associated costs.
